Firefox Portable

Vertical black bar appears instead of "..."

Submitted by anontemp123 on April 4, 2011 - 2:14pm

I am using Firefox Portable version 3.6.16. Everywhere that I should see three periods, i.e. "...", I am seeing a black vertical bar. For example, here is what my tabs look like: http://www2.picturepush.com/photo/a/5389060/640/5389060.jpg

Text on the buttons under Tools->Options also exhibits this behavior. Anyone have an idea what it could be? Running Windows XP SP3.

3.6.16 Upgrade

Submitted by Maineguy01 on April 3, 2011 - 4:02pm

I know I am one of the few but I am not ready to go to Firefox 4. Is there a way for me to upgrade to 3.6.16 using the legacy download. I tried installing and it did what it is intended to do, made a new Firefox installation. I really only want to update my current portable installation.

Thanks!!

Remove a blocklist addon

FFP V. 3.6.11, I have this addon called Metastream 3 plugin, it has a red exclamation point and everything about it is grayed out, I want to remove it how do I do this ? It's been disabled in FF because it is on some blockllist and I can do anything via the addon manager, so I would imagine this will be a particular folder to delete.

Firefox 4.0 portable hangs occasionally

Submitted by stephan123 on March 29, 2011 - 4:54am

Hi,

I am running FF portable on Windows XP for 3 years now. I upgraded to FF 4.0 some days ago and experience hangs when showing PDFs or downloading files.

FF just hangs and never comes back, I have to kill the process.

I tried the following to get rid of the problem, without any success.

1. Run FF with an new data-directory
2. Run FF in safe-mode
3. Run FF from a network share
4. Run FF from a local drive

The problem is, that I cannot reproduce this every time.
